No 5. Nungwi, Zanzibar, Tanzania
The beaches of southern Kenya and northern Tanzania are the only ones I've ever walked on where the powder-white sand is so fine it literally squeaks between your toes. The island of Zanzibar is the jewel of the east-African coast, with its spice trade, labyrinthine old Stone Town and, of course, around 30 beaches, nearly all of which are to die for. One of the best is Nungwi, near the northern tip of the island. The coastline has a shallow slope so the sapphire water, white sand and coral build-ups forming a calm sea which stretches for miles and is home to thousands of marine animals. Dotted with tiny fishing villages that have barely changed in centuries, the Zanzibar coastline has a dreamy timeless air.
Millions of people travel to Africa on a yearly basis, but going to a beach is usually not on the list of things to do when you are in Africa. In Zanzibar, there are around 30 wonderful beaches, all which are fitting of a place on this top ten list. For many, Nungwi is the pick of the 30 beaches, with terrific water quality alongside wonderful sands. On top of what you would expect, you will also find wonderful fish and marine life, which make this breathtaking beach ideal.
